A fourth meeting between top Indian and Chinese commanders scheduled next week across the contested Type of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh is expected to focus on the critical Finger Area and the strategic Depsang plains, which has a complex disengagement method that began after previous military talks on June 30 progressing smoothly in Galwan Valley, Hot Springs and Gogra, two officials informed about the developments said on Thursday, speaking about the condition on anonymity.

Whilst the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) pulled back 2km from Patrolling Point 14 (Galwan Valley) and PP-15 (Hot Springs) earlier this week, an identical retreat was completed at PP-17 (Gogra) on Thursday, said one of many officials cited above. The Indian Army, too, has pulled back proportionately during these friction areas.

It can’t be seen as disengagement, he said, although the army has observed some thinning of PLA removal, vehicles and troops of structures from a key spur in the Finger Area near Pangong Tso over the last 48 hours.

The Finger Area will probably be in the middle in the next round of military discussions between your corps commander-ranked officers, with Depsang also figuring prominently about the Indian agenda, said an additional official.

“Disengagement at Galwan Valley, Hot Springs and Gogra looked doable right from the start. The Finger Area is where negotiations could drag out as Chinese troops have dug inside their heels in Finger 4. Obtaining the PLA to retreat inside the Depsang sector is evenly critical through the Indian perspective,” he was quoted saying.

The Finger Area, which is the term for a couple of eight cliffs jutting from the Sirijap range overlooking the Pangong lake, remains to be the biggest test and most difficult part of the disengagement process, as reported by HT on Thursday.

Before the PLA grabbed positions on Finger 4 overlooking Indian deployments, the army would patrol right up to Finger 8 that New Delhi considers within Indian territory. The brand new positions held with the PLA have curtailed the scope of Indian patrols. Fingers 8 and 4 are 8km apart.The Indian claim line in this sector reaches Finger 8, as the Chinese claim can be Finger 4 .

The military is keeping a strict vigil over the contested border in the Depsang sector the place that the PLA’s forward presence is really a matter of serious concern and where a 2013 Chinese intrusion blocked the access of Indian soldiers to a few patrolling routes, such as the ones resulting in PPs-10, 11A, 13, 12 and 11.

“With disengagement successfully carried out in Galwan Valley, Hot Springs and Gogra, the military commanders will now start the harder challenging discussions throughout the Finger Area and Depsang plains,” said former Northern Army commander Lieutenant General DS Hooda (retd).

The Indian focus should not be seen on disengagement but on restoration of establishment ante (the specific situation since it existed noisy . April) in these two important areas, Hooda said.
